About this house rental
Slack Tide Cottage
Slack tide comes when tidal water is completely unstressed, when the tide is neither coming in nor going out. For this lovely two bedroom cottage, presented by Real Escapes Properties and located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac being unstressed is the proper state of mind. Few cars are passing by yet you are close to the village, can walk to restaurants and walk to the beach. What can be better than time at the beach and then a short walk back to an enclosed outside shower to leave the sand and spray with a comfortable warm shower. Bring your dog too and shower him off in a space large enough for a small party. The back yard is fully enclosed so young children and your pets will not be wandering into the neighborhood.
Slack Tide Cottage can be enjoyed on the front porch with four rocking chairs and two small tables for your hors d’oeuvres and a cool drink of your choice. Surely as the sun goes down there is no stress as you quietly plan the rest of your evening rocking without a care. Will it be a quiet evening in with something from the backyard grill or a satisfying walk to a meal nearby?
Enter into the spacious den and dining area with ceiling fan, flat screen TV and ample seating. The dining room has a table for four just off of the kitchen. This cottage has been nicely upgraded and you will find everything you need in the kitchen - Keurig coffee maker, microwave, toaster, blender, pots/pans, and the list goes on!
Just down the hall, you will find a roomy bathroom with a double vanity on your left and on your right, the entrance to the large Master Bedroom with a King size bed, writing area, ceiling fan and TV. The full size laundry room with a side by side washer and dryer is located just off of the Master Bedroom. Across the hall from the Master, is a slightly smaller bedroom with a Queen-sized bed, ceiling fan and beautiful new linens.
If you read newspapers on-line or keep up with your favorite team the Wi-Fi is robust and available. Log-on to your email provider and tell your friends how peaceful an island of maybe 15,000 full time residents can be. Do you play golf? There is no end of possibilities to play on the many courses throughout the Golden Isles. There is even a PGA event on Saint Simons every year, the RSM Classic, played in November. Come and see your favorite players up close in a tournament hosted by Davis Love III.
Slack Tide Cottage, located at 1102 Sherman Avenue, is the perfect relaxing spot for you and your family.

Enjoyed my 7th stay here as much as the first. For the price and location you can’t go wrong. Only con is there’s only one bathroom however there’s a wonderful private outdoor shower which is really refreshing on warm days.

Overall we had a good stay. The positives: very quiet street with ample off street parking, close to most things, comfortable furniture, good kitchen, nice fenced yard for our dog, and general cleanliness was good. The negatives: the ceiling fan in the living room didn't work, the front storm door was broken and would not close fully so we couldn't leave the main door open for light or to easily use the front porch, the step up to the front porch is high with no railing (just in case you are mobility challenged - I have a slight hip problem and it was difficult to go up and down from the porch), and the bathroom is vintage - not in a good way and it shows (again if you are mobility challenged there is a high step over the tub for the shower and the toilet is very low) The property is managed by a firm on the island that seems to have a lot of rental properties here. They were not open on the weekend when we stayed. This was an issue since calls about the broken items were not returned. We dropped our keys and left before the office opened. We filled out their feedback form and left it with the keys but received no contact.

Loved the location! Close to everything. Loved the yard for my dog and the home was fully stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The only thing I would change is because the unit is older it does that have old musty smell, but I learned from the past bring a glade plug in. Would definitely stay here again. Check in was super easy and the staff was very kind.
